Found my first wormhole, went to W-Space and successfully hacked several Gurista data centers. Brought back some loot for several million isk...
The only question is how do I sell it? I got Decryptos of several kinds, Caldari datacores and spare parts, and looks like there're no contracts for them... Advice is appreciated! |

Just sell them on the market. Compare prices to see if it's worth filling a buy order or setting up a sell order. |

Richard Law wrote:All good then. I'll look for a friendly corp! And one more question, actually corp-related:
I understand there's Concord as a 'federal police', then faction police that can be fought with, but I also heard there're corporations that run their own police and customs. Is that true, by chance? In the Providence region of null sec you have groups of players that "police" that region of null sec in an attempt to make it similar to highsec with regards to safety. IMHO if you have access to intel channels and use things like "the overlay tool" then Provi can be as safe or safer than high sec but admittedly that is only my opinion. |

I probably should have read down before I posted.
Cherri Minoa has been known to post in this section of the forums from time to time and she is very active in one of the Sov holding Alliances in null sec. My main is in a corp who's members live in Provi and fly with defense fleets but do no hold sov. There are many was to live in Provi and fly in defense fleets or not. If this is something that you are interested in send me an Eve mail and I'll try to get you in contact with people that can help.
However if the original question was just a curiosity then the short answer once again is yes there are player organizations that police null sec and make it safe for anyone willing to play by the rules. |

Stockpile them at your base of operations. When you have enough to fill a hauler take them to the nearest hub. There sholud be plenty of buy orders there. And no, those estimated prices are only useful if you are in a region with a hub. Everywhere else, they could be very inaccurate, both ways.
You can always go to eve-central to got a better idea of the prices to decide what is hauling and what is not. Eve-mogul is even better.

There will be buy orders for decryptors for sure. You're probably just looking at the market while in null or wormhole space and the market shifts depending on what region you're in |

EVE-Central can help you look up what items are going for at the hubs while you are in a wormhole and have no access to view via the in game market.
I do believe that there is an in-game channel for asking other players to price check stuff for you but to me EVE-Central is easier and more reliable as well as more informative. |

Keep in mind that this is a PVP game, and if you carry more in your cargo hold than the cost of the ship required to kill you, Concord or not, you will get attacked. For the typical defenseless industrial (hauler), all it takes is a destroyer or two.
Options are:
- move the expensive stuff yourself, but in a well tanked ship - use courier contracts to move your stuff, with collateral (so if it's lost you get paid the value anyway) - don't move it and just sell it where you are, at some discounted price (you can set up sales orders from the Advanced sell window)

Exploration loot is so low volume that you can usually haul a few hundred million worth in a covert ops frigate |

To sell exploration loot relatively safely if your corporation is at war : Have a "home" just inside the border of highsec. Bring all your loot there. Create an alt who stays in the NCP corporation. Contract your loot to your alt. Give your alt a fast T1 frigate he can fly and fill it with exploration loot. Travel to the main trade hub of your choice. Make a insta-dock bookmark on the trade hub station, as well as an insta-undock one. This solution is not 100% safe, nothing is in EVE, but it limits the risks. |

I actually looked for the orders in a 1.0 system (the exit WH lead me to one of Amarr' sectors), but I apparently did something wrong, I see now in Eve-Central (thanks for pointing this thing out!) that there are buy orders... And that the difference between sell and buy orders is ~300k, I wonder if anyone buys from them.

I'll keep that in mind. I think I'll use my frigate with cloak though, it's not like there is a lot to haul... |

Personally I never sell to buy orders unless the value of the stack is under 500k or so or the buy order is within 10% of the closest sell order.
A lot of people take advantage of lazy people by setting up really low ball buy orders and sell them off with their own sell orders. If might not he instant isk but I think it's worth the wait. |

I have to admit that's far more interesting than typical NPC looting and dealing stuff to NPC traders for a fixed price. Obtain the goods, locate the buyer, deliver the cargo safe, just like IRL. Thank god there's no fuel in the game. |

There is. Not for your average ship, but later you'll see that some specific things need fuel ;) |

However... Is there price inflation? And do Eve corps issue shares? That might be fun to play with :D |

Jump-capable ships require fuel to jump to a destination cyno beacon (instead of going through the gates, which is quite risky). Player-owned starbases (POS'es) need fuel to operate. Capital ships need fuel to activate their "siege" module. And if you extend the concept of "fuel", ships need ammo, spare missiles, capacitor charges, nanite paste, and other various consumables in order to function properly in combat. |
